If one conld believe one-hundredth part

matter, apparently, to maintain good health
to extreme old age. Now here are three
certificates recently sent us. We don't
vouch for them, but ii seems probable that
the statements made are true, as the parties
could have no interest in publishing any
thing except to benefit fellow-sufferers:

evening were very much increased by finely

refreshments, which had been thoughtfully

The town of Dunbar, Nebraska, voted
for license recently and the feeling among
liquor men has been strong against the pro-
hibitionists. Some of the towns-people got
drunk in Nebraska City Thursday, and on
their return attacked the houses and prom

other missiles. A battle between the tenn
perance men and the drunken mob fol-
lowed, the latter being finally routed
Several of the temperance men were badly
used up but none fatally injured. Five Of
the mob were seriously hurt and two
fatally.

THE RESULT OF RUM.
Particulars of he Killing of Oden at La
throp.

STOCKTON, March 23d.-A Coroner's in
quest was held here to-day over the body
of DR.. Odell, who was shot yesterday by
his brother-in-law, w. S. Moss, son of the
late Captain Moss, the former owner of the
Examiner. 1t is rumored that there was
concealed bad feeling between the men,
but they hunted, fisbed and ate together
0dell married Moss sister few years ago,
and spent her money too freely to suit her
relatives. Moss and 0dell had been drink
ing yesterday, and the latter mixed up
poison in whisky, daring Moss to
drink it. Moss said he preferred his
straight, and drank some whisky from
q jug. Odell went out to catch a
horse, when Moss stepped to the door and
shot into the door of the wster-closet,
thinking 0dell was there. Odell returned
with the horse and laid on the grass. A
hired man named Snyder, who was the
only other person on the ranch, was in the
barn, when he heard two shots, and look
ing out saw Moss striking at Odell with a
gun. Odell fell back dead. Moss then
came here in 0dell's buggy and gave him
self up. Snyder heard them talking before
the shooting, but says there was no quar-
rel. Odell was shot in the head, the charge
entering the face near the left corner of the
mouth. A pistol was found in his pocket
with one empty cartridge, but it is believed
he did not shoot at Moss

Arrest of the Man Who Lately Robbed
the Marysville Stage.
MARYsyILLE, March 23d-On Monday
the stage running between here and Camp
tonyille, when within about ten miles of
that place was stopped by lone high
wayman who ordered the driver, David
Quadlin, to throw out the box. Which re-
quest being complied with, he requested
the passengers to turn over what yaluables
they had in their possession; but, upon
the driver assuring him that they were
needy men looking for work, he desisted
and told the driver to move on, which he
did Thomas Labadie, who lives near
Dobbins' ranch, hearing of the affair and
getting description ofthe robber, returned
to his home with the intention of making
a search for him in the morning with the
Wells, Fargo & Co. In the morning
about 6 o'clock a young man carry
ing rifle over his shoulder and
answering to the description of the
highwayman approached the house and
asked for some breakfast, and while wait
ing talked of his prospects for getting some
work in the surrounding country. When
he had finished eating he started to leave,
but was detained by Mr.. Labadie, who in
formed him that he was under arrest. He
denied the robbery at first, but finally ad-
mitted it. Ropes were placed about him,
and he was brought to this city and turned
over to the Sheriff. A preliminary exam
ination was held in the Justice Court last
evening, when he was readily identified by
the stage-driver. He answers to the name
OF George Tuscan, and claims this is his
first offense He is about % years old, of
slender build, with very dark complexion,
somewhat bronzed by the sun. He says he
has been on the coast three years, two of
which he worked on the Glenn ranch, and
has been looking for work for the last eight
months. There was no financial loss to the
company, as the box contained nothing of

THE RAILROAD CONFERENCE.
No Change in Passenger Rates-Wh.
West-bound Rates Are Low.

No Change in Passenger Rates-Why
west-bound Rates Are Low.
T. H. Goodman, General Passenger
Agent of the Southern Pacific Railway
system, who has Just returned from the
East, predicts great coming of tourists to
California next year. The rate to attract
tourists has been made TO compete with
European travel, and therefore the lower
rate from East to West is explained. 1t is
now possible for one desiring to travel
from any point on the Atlantic coast, to
visit California without greater expense
than attaches to visit to Europe,
At Chicago recently there was held
meeting of prominent railroad men, and
among those assembled were Vice-Presi-
dents, General Managers and men active
and influential in other departments of
railroad service. The general feeling ex-
pressed was not to disturb existing rates.
The operation of the interstate commerce
law of course claimed attention, and es-
pecially the section relating to the short
and long hauls. Much will depend upon
the Interpretation of the law by the Com
missioners, but the judgment of the rail-
road men as assembled did not regard the
Act as a calamity.
Colonel C. F. Crocker said that the South
ern Pacific would acquire the Oregon and
California Railroad, and control direct
line from San Francisco to Portland. The
California and Oregon Company going
north, with land grants vested by Acts of
Congress, is within forty-fye miles of the
southern terminus of the Oregon and Cali
fornia, but there is heavy mountain work
and immense tunneling to be done before
the lines connect. As regards the grant of
lands from the Government, each stands on
an equal footing, but land or no land the
road will be completed. Mr.. Crocker says
the road will be completed this year, and
it is the opinion generally expressed that
Oregon farmers can exhibit their horses
and cattle at the next State Fair of Califor-
mia.
A reporter asked Colonel Fred. Crocker
if a great hotel would be built at Santa
Cruz. The gentleman to whom the in
quiry was addressed, hesitated. He was
not certain that all the details of the trans
fer of the South Pacific Railroad to the
Southern Pacific had been settled. How
ever he said that the tourist travel to Cali
fornia next year and many years to come
would astonish people. The present hotel
accommodations, large indeed, would be
inadequate to meet the deman ds.-S.F BuL-
letin.

The FrnIt-shInnInc outlook.

The Winters Express has the following
concerning the outlook for shipping
through the California Fruit Union the
present season
1t seems to us that in limiting the num-
Der of agents to one in each city to which
fruit shipments are made, which agent is
to be the sole eonsignee permitted to re-
ceive fruit, the directorate of the California
Fruit Union has not varied materially
from the course followed by it last season.
This is the rock upon which the Union was
driven last year, and which well nigh made
a total wreck of the concern. We see small
difference between shipments made exclu-
siyely to Porter Brothers at Chicago, and
consignments made TO sole agents else
where, who certainly will not be the choice
of majority Of the shippers but who, in
all human probability, will be designated,
guided and governed by Porter Brothers.
The action of the Directors bears additional
significance in the light of the fact that il
was taken at the instance solely of Wash
ington Porter The Union seems to be
playing sort of thumbs up" with Mr..
Porter posing as the only and original
Simon.
